Greetings, @millerwav.

 

I can share some resources on how QuickBooks Desktop handles deleting or voiding a payroll check.

 

When you void a payroll transaction, it zeroes out the net amount and offset the taxes withheld on the check. The deductions on the voided check will no longer affect your tax liability as it removes the history of the original check.
